West Ham attacker Benrahma on Bournemouth form: Every minute counts for me

West Ham attacker Said Benrahma was pleased with his performance in victory over Bournemouth.

The Algeria international was a constant threat to the Cherries at London Stadium on Sunday and converted a penalty in the 2-0 win.

He told the club's website: "It was a great night! Back in the starting eleven. It was good. I've been waiting for this, I've worked hard to get back into the starting lineup and it paid off tonight. I played the full 90 minutes, got on the scoresheet, my legs felt good; it's really great for my confidence. I'm happy because it's not easy… Tonight, I had to find my confidence, but I worked hard and was able to respond on the pitch.

"I try to do my best with my time on the pitch, to give the best performance I can, to try and be in the starting XI as much as possible.

"Every minute counts for me. I always try to give my all every minute I play, every time I come on as a sub… I hope to be part of the starting XI because it feels great to play!"
